what do you do in a restaurant if you've eaten halfway and you found a hair in your food?

Question

say you don't know whether this is your hair or others' hair..

Answer 1

It just so happens I have a related issue that happened to me when I was at a restaurant last night! I ordered a crab cake salad and ate half of it. It was a lot of food, and I was planning to box up the other half to eat for lunch the next day (today). After I'd finished eating, my friend who was sitting beside me inquired if my meal was good. I said yes. Then she looked at it and said, "What is that?" It looked like she was pointing at a piece of lettuce that was kind of white. I moved it around with my fork, and we discovered that it was A LATEX GLOVE! Gross!! My husband called the manager over, and the manager was horrified. He quickly removed the plate and offered not only to comp my meal but also to replace the meal as a carry-out (for my lunch today) and to give all 6 of us free dessert. He really bent over backwards to make up for it, and I am quite certain that the salad maker got an earful about hygiene. Like my friend say, though, at least we know they used gloves for the food prep!

Answer 2

Regardless of how much you've eaten there is still a hair in your food. Call the manager over and request a refund. Or contact the health department. If you think its your hair theres not much you can do.

Answer 3

You tell the server that there's a hair in your food. If she's worth a damn then she'll apologize and remove the plate from your table and get the manager. Then the manager will get you fresh food! But if you're like me, you've lost your appetite and just ask for the plate to be removed from the bill and leave! Ta-Da!

Answer 4

Put the hair in your napkin quietly, put the napkin beside your plate and then choose if you want to eat any more of that dish or not, even the finest cooks sometimes leave hairs in their food, but the hair won't kill you, I've eaten about a pound of cat fur and I'm not dead yet.

Answer 5

not from own adventure yet from what i've got heard the plates are massive and, being full of nutrition, the parts might desire to be, too. All of which will desire to make contributions to waste, to not point out the increasing length of the consumers. Having an previous formed hearty urge for nutrition is in simple terms appropriate if the potential is going for use up. the favorite interpretation of a hearty urge for nutrition might desire to be to eat healthily for the excellent element approximately suggested coronary heart. There might desire to be no embarrassment or shame in sharing a plate of nutrition or using a pup bag. If it quite is paid for, eat it or take it.

Answer 6

If I've eaten halfway through a meal and discover a hair, I'll put it in my napkin and not mention it to anyone.

I won't finish the food, however.

Answer 7

Why do people get feaked out about a hair in their food? I would pull out the hair and continue to eat. It's just a hair, not a penis. Lord knows if you watched half the time people made food, you wouldn't want to eat it with their stinky fingers all over it, never mind their hair.

Answer 8

Don't make a big scene or anything, simply ask the head waiter to come over, and quietly tell him whats happened, if he doesn't improve the situation, refuse to pay, as its bad presentation and a breach of health and safety. And if its your hair, who the hell cares, you've probably just got a free meal lol

Answer 9

Pick the hair out and continue with your meal...but save the hair and show it to management...they will make sure that everyone is wearing a cap or a hairnet...it does happen sometimes but it's pretty rare considering how much people eat out.

Answer 10

Call the waitperson and complain.
We've found some really bizarre stuff in our food.
The plastic wrap off a pack of cigarettes in a burger at Ruby Tuesdays.
A seashell in a pile of fries at 99.
A piece of chicken in a plate of pasta with marinara at Chilis.
